To be fair: they probably should have access to all imagery on the clock and on surveiled computers.

Only Fans images are semi-public So I don't see a privacy issue. If someone uses the access to masturbate or pirates content they should be prosecuted, of course.

Cops being pigs does not mean they should not have basic tools. This also does not mean that every police station needs such a workstation.

They would certainly love to have access.

It's also probably pretty easy for only fans to make software to detect and present a tiny subset of candidate streams for review. This seems like not a hard problem, Google does this already for the entire crawler accessible Internet.

I don't believe in self policing of corporate entities.

Nothing in my statement says that's a requirement
